Gas-liquid chromatographic determination of butylated hydroxyanisole and butylated hydroxytoluene in edible oils. 1977

J R Senten, and J M Waumans, and J M Clement

A method is described for the quantitative determination of butylated hydroxyanisole and butylated hydroxytoluene in edible oils. Both antioxidants are extracted with acetonitrile, and quantitated by gas-liquid chromatography, using a hydrogen flame ionization detection system and di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyanisole as an internal standard. The standard addition technique is used. Recoveries from oils containing 70-400 ppm by weight of both antioxidants ranged from 88 to 104%.

D009821	Oils	Unctuous combustible substances that are liquid or easily liquefiable on warming, and are soluble in ether but insoluble in water. Such substances, depending on their origin, are classified as animal, mineral, or vegetable oils. Depending on their behavior on heating, they are volatile or fixed. (Dorland, 28th ed)

D002849	Chromatography, Gas	Fractionation of a vaporized sample as a consequence of partition between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase held in a column. Two types are gas-solid chromatography, where the fixed phase is a solid, and gas-liquid, in which the stationary phase is a nonvolatile liquid supported on an inert solid matrix.
